Pros

Good learning tools available to continue developing. Difficult change being made to make the company better, I was with Funimation before the acquisition and was close to leaving after the acquisition as the culture and work was so bad, happy things are now changing with actual leaders being put in place and bad leaders being moved on. Lots of opportunities for people to make a difference and change how stuff gets done Leaders from big companies like Netflix and HBO, lots of different approaches. The hybrid work compromise is ok with 2 days in office a week

Cons

Some old Crunchyroll dev cliques who think that the old slow, bad way is the only way and anything different is wrong.
